Abstract
This report presents preliminary results on the characteristics of neutral current events from a 75,000 picture hydrogen exposure of the Fermilab 15-foot bubble chamber to a broad band neutrino beam. Results on charged current interactions
have been previously reported [1]. These were based on analyses conducted with the bubble chamber data alone. In this report data from the External Muon Identifier (EMI) are used to aid in obtaining a sample of neutral current events
relatively free of charged current and hadron-induced background.
